    The NBA’s America

    As we prepare for the beginning of the NBA season, players and league officials have already begun voicing their anticipation of practicing peaceful protests against prejudice and police brutality. This preseason, entire teams, not just select players, are locking arms regardless of race in solidarity to take a stand on equality. When looking at the NBA, we see a league very much dominated by African-American players. The NBA’s census shows that 69% of the league are African

    How the NBA Can Compete With the NFL

    Back in 2014, on a random NBA February night in Sacramento, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver offered his vision for the league during a contest between the Kings and Toronto Raptors. “I think this game should be a rival to football.” Silver said. Needless to say this proclamation was met with some skepticism, because let’s face it, as fun as the NBA has been over the past few seasons with LeBron’s compelling triumphant return to Cleveland and the Golden State Warriors forcing us

    Building An NFL Defense With NBA Stars

    Continuing from yesterday’s piece about creating an NFL offense out of NBA players, let's see what we can do on the defensive side of the ball. Defensive Ends: Serge Ibaka and Dwight Howard - To clarify, Ibaka would line up at right defensive end, with Howard on the left. Both players have huge wingspans that would interfere with opposing quarterbacks’ passing lanes and Ibaka’s athleticism would give quarterbacks nightmares about getting crushed on their blind side. Howard’s

    Making An NFL Offense With NBA Players

    It is always fun to imagine our favorite athletes playing another sport and wondering how they would do. Who hasn’t wanted to see LeBron James strap up some football pads, or see if Alex Rodriguez is as good at football and basketball as people claim? Well I decided to go ahead and come up with a NFL offense consisting of NBA stars. Quarterback- John Wall, Washington Wizards (6’4”, 195 pounds): Wall has everything you look for when you are searching for a quarterback in a NBA

    Roundtable: The NBA Meets the NFL (Defense)

    In the summer of 2017, both the Owners and the NBPA have the option of opting out of the current CBA in hopes to reach a new deal. If there is indeed a lockout like 2011, in which the first portion of the season is lost, what will NBA players do? Well considering the fact that college basketball players have gone on to play in the NFL and have successful careers, we at OTG began to wonder… Which current NBA player would have success in a NFL defense? Jon Kim – NFL players are
